Don't worry about what they think. These are your grades, and all you need to worry about is how you feel - it's your future, not theirs, to put it bluntly.

I'm sorry the exam didn't feel great, but there's no guarantee there that you actually did badly, the answers you gave may have been spot on, even if they were guesses!!!

Just remember that as long as you did your best, that's what matters. You've obviously put in the time and the work; everyone has bad days!! And if other people decide to judge you for them, they obviously have nothing more important to do.

Hope this helps, do get back to me with anything else if I can help.

What subject was it? And the fact that you've posted on here suggests you're not thick (although some of the people on here make me question this judgement :P); I'm sure you've done OK!

I'm always here if you want to talk, I know what it's like; I failed Y12

Eek! That's quite an important one!

Worst case, re-sits are about £30

What did you fail in y12 if you dont mind me asking
I think that as long as you have done your best your parents, friends and family will be so proud of you. I bet they have seen how hard you have worked and no matter what will admire your dedication to your work and revision. It's yourself that will be disappointed, but just remember how hard you have worked. Failure is not getting the grade you were predicted, Failure is not trying

I failed French, Computing, Biology and Chemistry, doing a full re-sit.

I didn't try. You did, so should do better

Don't worry about it, Atleast you put the effort into it, I know you will get a high grade!

if it helps, the other day, on the radio, they were talking about random stuff, so they were talking about unusual things that make you smarter than others and one of the things were that if you think our not smart and you do terribly wrong, you tend to be much smarter than your tricking yourself into thinking, this applies to pretty much anyone. :wink:
